Are you sure that applied to '96, '97 E 350s ?
My 1997 E 350 also has a 10,500# GVWR, which was pretty much the norm for the dually E 350 back then.
Something else that I just thought of, that Load Range D tires were pretty much the norm back then.
I'm not sure which years the bulletin applied to. Good point on the tires also.
Really though, the E350 chassis hasn't changed much from 1992. Front axles are all the same (except springs) until '08, and the rear axles haven't changed either, except that somewhere mid-'00s they also added an upgraded 8500# Dana 70 vs the standard 7800# version, along with upgraded spring packs.
